"National Interest": Arvind Kejriwal Writes To PM For Delhi Ration Scheme
NDTV
On Saturday the centre put a crimp in a doorstep food rations delivery scheme that the Delhi government claimed would benefit around 72 lakh poor people
Days after launching a direct attack on Twitter, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has written to Prime Minister Narendra Modi to seek his help in overturning the centre's decision to block doorstep delivery of food rations in the national capital. Mr Kejriwal reminded Prime Minister Modi that his AAP government had supported the centre on various matters of "national interest" and asked for similar consideration in this matter. "Till today I have supported you in all your work in national interest. You should also support us in this... this is also a matter of national interest. We are ready to do make any changes in the ration delivery plan that the central government needs," the Chief Minister's letter read. "It is important that this scheme be implemented - not just in Delhi but the whole country - during the coronavirus pandemic," the letter said.More Related News
